And I once stood at 80+/F of a high-rise in downtown New York, overlooking Central Park and gazing out at the Empire State Building. I worked as a teacher since 2021 and hold a certificate of English teacher in primary school. I am good at helping kids learn English from level 0. Sometimes I teach Chinese, like Pinyin and Writing. I have carefully studied the YCT and HSK textbooks and the past exam papers in recent decade, and I find them far simpler than Chinese textbooks used in China. I am confident that I am fully capable of teaching foreign children Chinese and helping them pass the YCT/HSK tests. 我叫Shirley,我住在广州,普通话和粤语是常用语言,英语听说流利 我本科学历,大学学的英语专业,大学期间通过了CET-4, CET-6, MET-4, MET-8,毕业后在一家公司做海外投资,这份工作大大增加了我的国际视野,我在温哥华的华人社区吃过很棒的中餐,也曾站在纽约市区80几层的高楼,俯瞰中央公园,远眺帝国大厦。我2021年开始做老师,有小学英语老师教师资格证,尤其擅长给零基础的小孩做英语启蒙,我也带过小学语文课,擅长教拼音和作文。我仔细研究了YCT和HSK的课本和最近十年的YCT/HSK考试真题,比中国的语文课本简单太多了,我觉得自己完全能胜任教外国小朋友学习中文并通过YCT/HSK考级。 我的教学资料 PDF文件 演示幻灯片/PPT 视频文件 音频文件 文章和新闻 小测验 家庭作业 考试样题和示范 图片文件 文本文件 图形和图表 词汇卡

    Learning Chinese (Cantonese)

    I've taken biweekly lessons with Daisy for about 5 months throughout 2026. I had a basic conversational level of Cantonese before, but really wanted to go deeper and get more confident reading and speaking (and focusing on HK specific slang / terms). Daisy is an excellent teacher, not only does she have very detailed and useful materials we review on grammar topics and realistic sentences, she is really good at explaining the nuances of the language, giving interesting tangents and side topics and correcting my pronunciation. My in-laws have noticed that my speaking is better, and I'm noticing I can understand more Cantonese now. I highly highly recommend working with Daisy!!

    I am enjoying lessons with Hilary! After a few lessons with her, I was so impressed by her teaching style and patience that I decided to enrol my 7-year-old son as well. We’re both thoroughly enjoying our lessons. Hilary has a calm, encouraging approach that makes learning feel fun and manageable. She’s great at adjusting her teaching to suit different learning styles and ages. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to learn Cantonese and Mandarin, whether for themselves or their children!

    跟随Chloe老师学习粤语80多节课以来,我收获了一段非常愉快的学习体验。她总是以极大的耐心细致纠正我的发音,认真倾听我的每一句话,并给予丰富的反馈。Chloe不仅教学专业,更展现出敏锐的理解力——即使我用词不够准确,她也能快速捕捉我的意图,并教会我如何用更地道的方式表达。在她的帮助下,短短几个月内,我的粤语从不敢开口进步到能自如交流,每天上课都充满期待。这种学习热情是我从未有过的体验,真心向所有人推荐🥰🥰! --- After taking over 80 lessons with Teacher Chloe, I’m truly grateful for this wonderful opportunity to learn Cantonese. She patiently fine-tunes my pronunciation, listens attentively to my speech, and provides thoughtful feedback. Chloe is incredibly perceptive—even when my wording is imprecise, she quickly grasps my meaning and guides me toward more authentic local expressions. Thanks to her support, my Cantonese has progressed from hesitant to fluent conversation within months. I look forward to every lesson, an experience I’ve never had with any other learning journey. I wholeheartedly recommend this exceptional teacher to everyone!🤗🤗

    I've been taking Cantonese lessons with Fafa on italki for some time now, and I can wholeheartedly recommend her to any learner - beginner or advanced. She is incredibly engaging and highly skilled at teaching. One of the things I appreciate most is that she uses Jyutping, which makes pronunciation so much easier to learn, and she also includes the special characters that are unique to spoken Cantonese. This has really helped me to connect with the language as it’s actually used. Fafa is not only knowledgeable about Cantonese itself but she also has a broad understanding of many different topics, so conversations with her are always interesting and fun. She's quick to adapt, easy to talk to, and creates a relaxed learning atmosphere. Her lessons are never dull, and I always leave with more confidence and clarity. If you're serious about learning Cantonese - or just want a fun, effective, and culturally rich way to start - Fafa is the perfect teacher for you.

    Jessica really pushes my language practice to its limits! At the moment we are learning basic sentences and vocabulary and she encourages me to put it to use and try to make new sentences, not just rote repetition. Just when I feel like I’m overloaded, she pulls back and allows me to marinate in what we’ve learned before diving back in and working on conversation again. If you want to move quickly and learn a lot, I highly recommend Jessica!

    May has been really great to work with. She's really good at explaining grammar concepts and how words are used in different situations. Her classes are a great mix of conversation and learning new words/concepts/phrases, and she's really helpful in tailoring topics to what you need to know or what you're interested in. As an adult learner, I really appreciate her explanations!

    Wilma is fantastic - I've been working with her a couple years already. I am a native Cantonese speaker born to an immigrant family. I am bilingual but not biliterate. Wilma is great because not only does she know written Chinese, she knows jyutping too which is really what I was looking for in a teacher since my goal is to learn jyutping first. Next, Wilma is very adaptable and mixes up our lessons from vocab, to demo/feedback, to free flow conversation. I think she's fantastic and welcome anyone else to partner with her!

  • Keriann 婉君

    I’m a heritage speaker with the goal of improving my Cantonese and Fiona was very encouraging from the beginning. With her guidance, I maintained confidence to speak Cantonese for as long as possible during our session and felt comfortable asking questions. The lesson felt natural and I have a better framework on how to continue my studies. Excited to continue learning with Fiona!

Frequently asked questions about online Cantonese classes

Are online Cantonese classes effective for improving speaking skills?

Yes, online Chinese Cantonese classes can be highly effective for improving speaking skills. With one-on-one lessons, you get personalized attention from a qualified tutor who can provide immediate feedback and corrections. This focused interaction allows you to practice speaking in a comfortable and supportive environment. Tutors often incorporate speaking exercises, role plays, and real-life conversations to enhance your speaking abilities. Additionally, online platforms like italki often offer video and audio tools that facilitate real-time communication, helping you develop clear pronunciation and fluency. Regular practice with a skilled tutor can significantly boost your speaking confidence and proficiency in the Cantonese language.

Can I take trial lessons before committing to a full course?

Yes, many online Cantonese tutors offer trial lessons that allow you to experience their teaching style and assess whether it's a good fit for your learning needs. These trial lessons are usually shorter and less expensive than regular lessons, giving you the opportunity to get a feel for the tutor's approach and the platform itself. It's a great way to make an informed decision before committing to a full course. During the trial lesson, you can discuss your goals, preferences, and any questions you may have about the learning process. This helps you ensure that you find the right tutor and learning environment for your Cantonese language journey.

Can I choose the focus or topic of my Cantonese lessons?

Absolutely, you can choose the focus and topics of your Cantonese courses based on your learning goals and interests. Whether you want to improve your conversational skills, work on grammar, expand your vocabulary, or focus on specific themes such as travel, business, or culture, your tutor can tailor the lessons to meet your needs. Communicate your preferences and goals to your tutor, and they will design lessons that align with your objectives. This personalized approach ensures that your Cantonese learning experience is engaging, relevant, and effective.

How often should I take Cantonese lessons to see progress?

The frequency of Cantonese lessons depends on your learning goals, schedule, and the pace at which you absorb new information. For steady progress, many learners find that taking lessons once or twice a week is effective. This consistency allows you to reinforce your knowledge and skills over time. However, if you have more time and a strong commitment, increasing the frequency of lessons can accelerate your progress. It's important to strike a balance that works for you and to practice outside of lessons to reinforce what you've learned. Your tutor can provide guidance on the optimal frequency based on your goals.

Can I reschedule or cancel Cantonese classes if my schedule changes?

Yes, you can typically reschedule or cancel your Cantonese classes on italki if your schedule changes. However, the specific policies may vary depending on the tutor you choose. Most tutors offer a certain window of time before the scheduled class for rescheduling or cancellation without any penalties. It's important to communicate with your tutor and familiarize yourself with their individual policies regarding rescheduling and cancellations. This flexibility allows you to adapt your learning to your changing schedule while ensuring a positive learning experience.
